Yale on YES Returns in 2009

Nation's Premier Regional Sports Network And Historic
Football Program Join Forces Again

NEW HAVEN, Conn. -- The 2009 Yale Football Team
will have three straight Ivy League contests broadcast live on the
YES Network for the second straight season as part of a package
called Yale on YES.

The YES games are Saturday, Oct. 31 (Yale at Columbia),
Saturday, Nov. 7 (Brown at Yale) and Saturday, Nov. 14 (Yale at
Princeton). All three telecasts begin at 1 p.m. ET.

YES broadcaster Chris Shearn will handle the play-by-play, with
color commentary coming from former Ivy League and National
Football League lineman Ross Tucker and former Yale defensive back
Jack Ford '72, a well-known author and TV personality. Dan
Fleschner '01, a former radio voice of Ivy League sports and
currently the producer for "Today" on NBC News, will provide
insight from the sidelines on all three games.

YES aired Bulldog victories over Brown and Columbia last year
while the 2008 package also included a two-point loss to Penn.

"We are thrilled to be associated and featured on Yale on
YES. We are also very excited to usher in a new era of Yale
football on this great network for all our fans to see," said
Yale's Joel E. Smilow '54 Head Coach of Football Tom Williams, less
than two months from his first season with the Bulldogs.

The YES Network has been the most-watched regional sports
network in the nation the past six years. It features exclusive
telecasts of the 26-time World Champion New York Yankees and the
New Jersey Nets, as well as Emmy Award-winning biography, interview
and magazine programs, along with college games. The network also
presents a live daily simulcast of WFAN's highly rated
Mike'DUp: Francesa on the FAN show. YES is
available in New York, Connecticut, New Jersey and Pennsylvania on
cable and on the new television services provided by telephone
companies, and is also available nationally on DirecTV, Verizon's
FiOS service and on select cable systems. Further YES Network
